Today’s word is “flimflam” ... film-flam ... to trick, deceive, swindle, or cheat. (Dictionary.com)
Circus
Keep your eyes wide open,
As you travel through this land,
There are all sorts of oddities,
Sideshows and one-man-bands.
The flimflam man is busy,
Embellishing his speech,
Shouting, crazy barkers,
Rail and beg and screech.
Should you want a rest,
From this cacophonous place,
Search out peace and quiet,
Where there is love and grace.
